Huzzah!

Kim Kardashian and Bella Hadid Are Bringing Back Medieval Garb

This weekend may have brought crisp, autumnal weather, but that didn’t stop Bella Hadid from whipping out a chain-mail crop top to mourn the loss of her teenage years. The model, who turned 20 yesterday, went out to celebrate in N.Y.C. last night wearing a see-through metal Fannie Schiavoni dress with a couple of star pasties and a white fur jacket, for safe measure.

Over the past few weeks, chain metal has been finding its way onto members of the Kardashian family as well. Kim Kardashian West wore a silver metal halter top and skirt, also by Schiavoni, while attending one of Kanye West’s concerts. And a couple of weeks after that, she and her sister Kourtney wore metal-mesh looks that were on the runway only hours earlier at Balmain’s spring/summer show in Paris.

While chain mail may not be the most practical material to wear, post-Crusades, as we approach the coming solstice, Hadid makes a convincing argument for an updated, slightly inconvenient birthday suit.
